The Bank of Mexico is the primary regulator of crypto in the region; Currently, it is focusing on maintaining digital asset transactions and ensuring AML compliance. Digital currency : Banxico is actively working on the development and implementation of digital currency in the country, which is expected to be released by the end of 2025. El @Banxico informa que hacia 2024 tendrá una moneda digital propia en circulación, por considerar de suma importancia estas nuevas tecnologías y la infraestructura de pagos de última generación como opciones de gran valor para avanzar en la inclusión financiera en el país. — Gobierno de México (@GobiernoMX) December 30, 2021 This approach aims to expand financial inclusion by providing access to digital payment methods for individuals who are unable to access traditional ones. Innovation and Stability : Mexico is set to evolve its financial regulatory framework and integrate it with technology to explore digital currency and blockchain applications. It is also ensuring the safety and transparency standards for consumers to balance stability with innovation. Crypto License in Mexico 2025 Mexico has not mandated any specific crypto licenses yet; however, the entities dealing with crypto and other virtual assets must register with the Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de Valores (“CNBV”). Entities that desire to offer any crypto-related services must comply with anti-money laundering (AML) and other mandatory regulations. Crypto Tax in Mexico Mexico does not have any specific crypto laws, therefore, the general national tax law applies to it. In 2021, the Mexican tax Ombudsman confirmed that profits from crypto should be treated as income from the sale of goods. Income tax : Selling crypto for profit in Mexico is equated with selling any assets for profit. Thus, it is subject to income tax up to 35% for individuals and 30% for legal entities. VAT: Provisioning services or the sale of goods in exchange for crypto triggers VAT; 16% VAT is required, depending on the classification of the transaction. Large transaction: If the crypto transaction exceeds US$12,500, the buyer is required to withhold 20% and pay directly to the tax authority. Digital platforms facilitating crypto transactions may be required to withhold the tax on behalf of the user. Crypto adoption rate in Mexico Users: It is expected that during 2025, Mexico’s cryptocurrency market will reach $985.5 million, crossing the rate of 15 million crypto users in the region. Age ratio: The total population of Mexico is 129.7 million , among which 37% of crypto investors are aged 25-34, and 22% for the rest of the age group. A report released in March reveals that 74% of crypto users in Mexico are men. Penetration rate: The estimated under penetration is expected to reach 12.93% and is anticipated to grow up to 9.80% by 2033. Crypto holdings: It is not disclosed yet; the Mexican government prioritizes releasing a government-backed digital currency (CBDC). Endnote Mexico is one of the countries in Latin America that is currently focusing on enhancing the regulatory landscape for cryptocurrency and digital assets in the region. I believe if Mexico maintains this stability of cryptocurrency with the legal framework and boosts the security regulations, then in no time, it will be posing as a crypto hub in the global landscape. .article_register_shortcode { padding: 18px 24px; border-radius: 8px; display: flex; align-items: center; margin: 6px 0 22px; border: 1px solid #0052CC4D; background: linear-gradient(90deg, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1) 0%, rgba(0, 82, 204, 0.1) 100%); } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 { color: #000000; font-weight: 600; font-size: 20px; line-height: 22px; text-align:left; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 span { color: #0052CC; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { font-weight: 400; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; color: #171717B2; margin-top: 4px; text-align:left; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body{ padding-right: 14px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-button a { float: right; } .article_register_shortcode .primary-button img{ vertical-align: middle; width: 20px; margin: 0; display: inline-block; } @media (min-width: 581px) and (max-width: 991px) { .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { margin-bottom: 0; } } @media (max-width: 580px) { .article_register_shortcode { display: block; padding: 20px; } .article_register_shortcode img { max-width: 50px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 { font-size: 16px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body { margin-left: 0px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-top: 6px; margin-bottom: 14px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-button a { float: unset; } .article_register_shortcode .secondary-button { margin-bottom: 0; } } Never Miss a Beat in the Crypto World!

SharpLink now holds over 270,000 ETH

SharpLink Gaming doubles down on Ethereum with its latest investment of 16,374 ETH worth $48.85 M. The firm began its Ethereum treasury strategy two months ago, backed by a $425 million private placement. After this new acquisition, SharpLink holds over 270,000 ETH and has become the second-largest corporate holder of the digital asset behind the Ethereum Foundation. The Minneapolis-based sports betting and entertainment tech company is now looking to make Ethereum more than an investment asset, positioning it as a central part of its treasury infrastructure. Ethereum’s continued accumulation has contributed to a price rebound, mirroring Bitcoin’s recovery. Ac cord ing to on-chain analytics platform Arkham Intelligence, the surge is largely driven by growing institutional interest in DeFi, staking, protocol-native yield strategies, and blockchain analytics. SharpLink makes major ETH purchases across key platforms Earlier on July 11, SharpLink purchased 10,000 ETH for $25.7 million through a deal with the Ethereum Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting the development of fundamental components of the Ethereum ecosystem. SharpLink continued aggressively buying the next day, July 12, securing an additional 21,487 ETH across two major institutional platforms. Breaking down the purchases from that day: 14,693 ETH from Galaxy Digital for $43.89 million, and 6,804 ETH from Coinbase Prime ($20.37 million). The Ethereum Foundation’s choice to sell ETH was not received well across the crypto community. Critics interpreted the move as a potential signal of declining confidence in Ethereum’s long-term value. In response, Foundation contributors quickly addressed the concerns and clarified their position. Foundation contributor Binji Pande framed the transaction as a strategic decision, noting that the ETH was sold to what he called ‘the MicroStrategy of Ethereum’—a nod to SharpLink’s growing reputation as a committed, long-term holder. He stressed that the sale was not a market dump and suggested the ETH could be effectively locked out of circulation through staking and active participation in the Ethereum network. The Foundation explained that sales proceeds will be put towards protocol R&D, ecosystem maintenance, and community grants — all critical to Ethereum’s development. SharpLink reaps $45M profit from Ethereum holdings SharpLink’s Ethereum plan seems to be paying off in spades, at least in the short term. As per the Arkham Intelligence, the value of the company’s existing ETH investment has already appreciated 5 times, bringing $45 million in unrealized profits. But profit isn’t the sole focus. SharpLink has escrowed all of its ETH into the Hoppers DApp, actively contributing to Ethereum’s security and scalability by participating in Proof-of-Stake and earning staking rewards. The company is also preparing to adopt restaking—a next-generation strategy that allows staked ETH to secure additional protocols and earn layered rewards. In an interview with Forbes, SharpLink chairman and Ethereum co-founder Joseph Lubin reiterated the firm’s conviction in Ethereum’s long-term viability. They said the move marks the beginning of something larger, describing it as a template for how mission-driven organizations can contribute to shared goals such as decentralization, economic empowerment, and protocol-driven finance. Lubin also stressed that SharpLink’s purchases of ETH reflected long-term views, rather than market timing. But they are, in fact, an indication of a calculated shift on where the corporate value bet in blockchain should lie, beyond mere speculation. Analysts who cover the industry say SharpLink’s model could set a precedent for other businesses, particularly those interested in making money and participating in open financial networks.

Dogecoin Returns To December 2020 Levels, Is Another 36,000% Rally Possible?

The Dogecoin price has shown a lot of promise recently after surging above the $0.2 mark with momentum over the last week. However, the price does remain very well below its all-time high of $0.7 , which means there is still a way to go for the meme coin from here. Interestingly, the meme coin’s price looks to have fallen into a trend not seen since December 2020, as highlighted by crypto analyst CryptoKaleo, showing a rising bullish trend. Dogecoin Price Returns To Levels Before 36,000% Rally In an X post, CryptoKaleo outlines the fact that the Dogecoin price has been trending similarly to where it was back in 2020. In particular, the Dogecoin price was struggling in December 2020 , but this was just before the legendary 36,000% surge that had been kick-started by billionaire Elon Musk posting about the meme coin on his X (formerly Twitter) post. Back then, the price had been struggling after its previous all-time high, following a trend line straight down. This was until it hit another upward momentum, followed by a downtrend, which marked the end of the price decline. At this point, the bottom signaled the start of the next rally. Now, once again, the Dogecoin price is beginning to mark another bottom after an initial breakdown within this trendline. According to the analyst, this puts the Dogecoin price right in the same place where it was back in December 2020. If it follows the same trend as it has been doing, then the meme coin could be getting ready to see a parabolic rally . From the analyst’s chart, the $1 mark is a no-brainer, with a possible top being as high as $2.4 before the trend is completed. Can The DOGE Price Rally 36,000% Again? The last time that the Dogecoin price broke out of this trend , it ended up rallying by 36,000% over the next few months. This opens up the possibility that a similar rally could be in the cards. However, multiple developments over the last few years suggest that this is not possible. For one, a 36,000% rally from here would mean that the price would rise as high as $72, meaning that the Dogecoin market cap would have to rise above $2 trillion. This is highly unlikely given that the DOGE supply is always rising and remains unlimited. More than likely, the $1 mark would mark the beginning of the end of the Dogecoin price rally.
